The change will not go into effect, however, until required congressional notice has been given. This will take at least 90 days. As the Commission explained in a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, Report and Order, and Order (MD Docket 14-92and others), released May 21, it?s a matter of simple economics. ?The Commission spends more resources on processing the regulatory fees and issuing refunds than the amount of the regulatory fee payment, ? the FCC said. ?As our costs now exceed the regulatory fee, we are eliminating this regulatory fee category. ? The current vanity call sign regulatory fee is $21.40, the highest in several years. The FCC reported there were 11,500 ?payment units? in FY 2014 and estimated that it would collect nearly $246,100.

If so, e-mail me. I'll contact the engineer who has it. I have a Rockwell/Collins 828C-1 One kilowatt AM transmitter (AKA: The "Power Pebble") on 1310 kHz free to a good home. This is the last 1 kw that they built and is PDM (no modulation transformer). It is the little brother to the 5 kilowatt "Power Rock" (hence its nickname). The transmitter was carefully disconnected, was working when removed from service about 6 years ago according to the former engineer (though he says the feedback ladder needed some fixing) and has been kept in a dust free air conditioned environment. All manuals, tubes and spare parts come with the unit. Must be picked up in Camden, NJ! Interested? Contact me off list. This has to be out by mid June, so time is of the essence! ____________________________________________________________ Old School Yearbook Pics View Class Yearbooks Online Free.
